Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).

Excellent drum synth. Full of disco and dub goodness. Only selling this one because we picked up another.

Serviced and working well.

The JHS SD-1 is a 2 oscillator synth with a switchable LP-HP-BP resonant VCF. VCO 1 has Noise, Square and Ring-Mod. VCO 2 is switchable as an LFO which can affect VCO 1 or the VCF.

It also has a sweep generator which can affect either or one of the VCO’s, and the VCF with independent variable polarity and depth, and variable decay. The VCA has control for decay and volume.

Product Description

Rare analogue drum synthesizer from the late 70's from John Hornby Skewes (JHS). The SD-1 is a battery powered drum synth with sound shaping controls and a rubber pad which, when hit, triggers the analogue circuitry for an infinite variety of possible sounds from deep bass to high pitches to sweeping disco tones. It can be mounted on its stand to provide a drummer with a pre-determined sound of choice to augment his kit or it can be used as-is in a studio setting for hands-on tweaking. In the latter case this can provide huge amounts of sample material.

Condition
